Ultra SunWhile they normally live in the sea, they can function on land, too, until their skin dries out.
Ultra MoonWhen it senses danger, a purple liquid oozes out of it. The liquid is thought to be something like greasy sweat.
Shellos SpriteSunShellos lives in the sea and feasts on plankton. The lovelier the ocean where Shellos resides, the more vibrant its color becomes.
MoonThe difference in color from one Shellos to another seems to be a result of their diet. No large changes can be seen in their capabilities.
